Mushroom Barley Soup

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 2 onions
• 2 stalks celery
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 pound of fresh mushrooms
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 1 cup barley
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (use more!)
• 1 teaspoon dill
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
• 10 cups water
• 2 carrots

Here is a good barley soup recipe. It's quite decadent, flavor wise, though it's quite healthy for you.

In a large pot (mine isn't big enough, so I cut it down to one onion, just less than a pound of mushrooms, 3/4 cup barley, and one carrot, and 8 cups water), combine chopped onion(s), celery, garlic (I upped it to four large cloves) and mushrooms. I added some water to this so that the veggies wouldn't stick to the pot. Saute for about 4 minutes, and then add the barley, soy sauce, seasonings, and water. Bring to a boil, and then simmer (I had it covered, though it's not called for), for 2 to 3 hours. 45 minutes before it's done, add the chopped carrots.
